Professional-Grade Rodent Repellent
Detour Rat Repellent Gel is an EPA-registered rodent repellent formulated with capsaicin to create a sensory barrier that deters rats and mice from treated areas. The 8 oz squeeze tube enables precise application at entry points, pathways, and structural openings. It is suitable for residential, commercial, and automotive use where rodent activity is a concern.
NSF/ANSI 18 Compliant for Food Areas
This gel is NSF-approved for use in non-food contact areas within food preparation and storage environments, making it appropriate for commercial kitchens and handling facilities. It helps protect surfaces near wiring, equipment, and openings without the use of lethal traps or pesticides. The non-toxicant formula supports indoor and outdoor application as directed.
Capsaicin-Based Sensory Barrier
The active ingredient capsaicin drives the repellent effect by irritating rodents' senses, encouraging them to avoid treated zones rather than eliminating them. This non-lethal mechanism means the product does not function as a rodenticide and will not control populations through mortality. Buyers needing lethal elimination or population reduction should select a different product type.

Questions about this item
Will the NSF/ANSI 18 gel interfere with existing traps or bait stations I already use?
The gel creates a sensory barrier using capsaicin and contains no pesticide, so it does not conflict with mechanical traps or rodenticide stations you keep in place.
How can I confirm the capsaicin barrier is still active after I apply it?
Active repellency shows as continued rodent avoidance of treated entry points and travel paths; re-apply when you see fresh droppings or gnaw marks reappear.
Does the 8 oz squeeze tube include an applicator tip, or must I buy a caulking gun separately?
The tube is designed for direct squeeze application; no separate caulking gun or tip is required.
